Lucia Koch was born in 1966, in Porto Alegre, Brazil. She moved to São Paulo in 1992, where she lives and works today. Collective projects and collaborations, along with teaching, have been part of her life and work since the beginning. Koch thinks about space and people, provoking altered states of places, and travels to experience architecture. In her installations, Koch manipulates and transforms the viewer’s space and sense of scale with the use of such medias: filters, screens, videos, photographs, and light. She photographs small, empty boxes and bags that are then printed on a larger-than-life scale. The artist builds displays and exhibition spaces using surfaces as filters and filters as communication devices, while creating or transforming atmospheres with natural and unnatural light.
